Steven Rostedt (Google) 3a2dcbaf4d tracing: Use a copy of the va_list for __assign_vstr()

If an instance of tracing enables the same trace event as another
instance, or the top level instance, or even perf, then the va_list passed
into some tracepoints can be used more than once.

As va_list can only be traversed once, this can cause issues:

 # cat /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/qla2xxx/trace
             cat-56106   [012] ..... 2419873.470098: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1054:14:  Entered (null).
             cat-56106   [012] ..... 2419873.470101: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1000:14:  Entered ×+<96>²Ü<98>^H.
             cat-56106   [012] ..... 2419873.470102: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1006:14:  Prepare to issue mbox cmd=0xde589000.

 # cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace
             cat-56106   [012] ..... 2419873.470097: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1054:14:  Entered qla2x00_get_firmware_state.
             cat-56106   [012] ..... 2419873.470100: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1000:14:  Entered qla2x00_mailbox_command.
             cat-56106   [012] ..... 2419873.470102: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1006:14:  Prepare to issue mbox cmd=0x69.

The instance version is corrupted because the top level instance iterated
the va_list first.

Use va_copy() in the __assign_vstr() macro to make sure that each trace
event for each use case gets a fresh va_list.
